This is the Atwood's year of Big Birthdays! Sunday, March 17th was Ashton's 20th birthday. The years, for me, have gone by so quickly. We started the birthday celebrations on Saturday.
Ashton decided he would like some lego for his birthday so we headed to the Lego store at the mall. After careful deliberations he came away with a couple of new sets. We also bought him a couple other little gifts, and his sister gave him a big birthday bag full of chocolate and treats.
After the mall we headed to Wendy's for burgers, fries and frostys! It was also great that Grandma was able to join us.
Later that night Ashton, Bowen and Jason went to the cheap theatre to see Robocop (the original). It is fun that the theatre shows old movies and the last two years they've played favorites of Ashton's on the weekend of his birthday.
On Sunday, his actual birthday, we had breakfast for supper (one of Ashton's favorites). Pancakes, with whipped cream, berries, and syrup; with bacon, sausages and eggs.
No celebration is complete without a DQ birthday cake!
Happy Birthday Ashton! We are so proud of you. You are an amazing young man. We hope you have a fantastic year, and we look forward to seeing all the things you will accomplish in the future.
